This game came with my hand-me-down DMG I got for my birthday back in 2001. Thankfully I never made it to the final level back then, pretty sure I would've tossed the game out the window after losing 50+ lives. Looking for what I should play next, recommendations welcome :)

That looks amazing!!! Pokémon Red next?

Ps: tutorial for that screen update?

[-] Spinny@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Played yellow when I was younger, never got around to blue or red. Added to the list :)

Parts: Replacement screen+front PCB https://funnyplaying.com/products/dmg-retro-pixel-ips-lcd-kit

Alignment bracket: (the link above came with a bracket even though it said it wouldn't) https://funnyplaying.com/products/dmg-retro-pixel-ips-lcd-holder

Video tutorial I followed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDmJ1IJG_Zo

Good luck :)

If you have a way to load Roma into it, you may want to to try ShinPokéRed. A mod fixing bugs and trainer Ai.

Yep I have a flashcart. I'll def give it a look before I start Red version!

Saving that screen link for later. I cannot imagine how great that must look in the old girl.

Oh it's night and day. It's really made me appreciate the DMG library. It has a dot matrix mode that emulates the grid of the OEM screen. I flip back and forth from time to time.
